Mode of Action

Triptorelin is a synthetic analogue of natural gonadotropin-releasing hormone. Initial admin stimulates the release of pituitary gonadotrophins with a transient increase in testosterone levels in men and in oestradiol levels in women, leading to an initial worsening of symptoms during the first wk. Prolonged admin leads to a suppression of gonadotrophins and a decrease in plasma testosterone or oestradiol after approximately 20 days, which is maintained for as long as triptorelin is admin.

Interaction

Decrease in LHRH receptors in pituitary with hyperprolactinaemic drugs antagonises effects of triptorelin.
